Brickwall                                                         ©  Christian Moss

 

So you've got it all worked out, no room for doubt

you've got immunity from all the things that affect me

Marry, in your late twenties, my, she's pretty

She'll agree to surgery to alter imperfections that you set

 

Well I can see you've really gone and thought this through

and I can see horror when it doesn't come true

I can see you heading for another fall

Are you not familiar with brick wall?

 

Its all in your hands, your life is planned

You'll do what you want to do and no-one will try to stop you

Take aim, by all means take aim, but prepare for change

This can be a winding road, some of which you might not know

 

And if it doesn't run, to your schedule

don't be surprised by this, there's too much in there you can miss

And when  you're telling me, how it’s going to end

a point I'd like to make, there's twenty candles on your cake
